To determine the weight capacity of your trailer axle, check the manufacturer's specifications, which are often found on a label or sticker located on the axle itself or in the owner's manual. You can also look for the axle's identification number to find detailed information online. Additionally, consider the trailer's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), as it should not exceed the combined capacity of all axles. For an exact assessment, consulting with a professional or referring to the trailer's documentation is recommended.

Mine (1995, 4X4, 5.2-V8) says the rear axle can hold 3850lbs. For total towing capacity, however, use the GVWR number, which is the total recommended maximum weight of the truck plus the trailer. You can go to any grain elevator in any town and ask them to weigh your truck, then subtract this from the GVWR number and that will tell you the towing capacity for just the trailer. For a 95 Dakota with a V8, the tow capacity should figure to be about 7050 pounds.
